If you request something here, I will make an entry on my personal To-Do management system with a reference to your request, and handle it in first-in first-out basis. I do try to do things as soon as possible but there is no guarantee.

Development
- Wikidata Query Service: We are working on adapting the Query Service UI to get it ready for the move to QLever
- Mobile editing of statements: We are continuing to fix small issues found in testing
- Lexemes: We are continuing the work on adding support for Lexemes to the REST API
- Sustainability:
- We are preparing the migration of some database tables on the client wikis that track the usage of Wikidata's data in articles on Wikipedia and co
- We are further investigating how many changes from Wikidata that currently get sent to Wikipedia and co don't actually lead to a change in the article to be able to reduce these cases further
